Teddy Roosevelt sounds off on preservation, the “hardy people” of the Adirondacks and assuming the presidency

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

LONG LAKE — September sparks a flurry of Teddy Roosevelt-related activities across the central Adirondacks each year, including last week’s TR Weekend in Newcomb and an upcoming appearance at Minerva Central on Sunday.

The Sun bumped into the 26th president at a function in Long Lake and cornered him into an quick interview.

The Sun: I�m going to record this interview. Is that okay?

Teddy Roosevelt: Imagine what I could have accomplished in my presidency if I had one of those.

I�m standing here with Mr. Teddy Roosevelt, who I encountered on Friday at the Adirondack Hotel in Long Lake.

Beautiful Long Lake, New York in the beloved Adirondacks.

How did you find yourself here today?

I am here at the invitation of the Adirondack Park Institute to give thanks for the members and donors that support the wonderful scientific and preservation work being done by the API throughout this region of my home state.

New pro-access group joins Adirondack land use fray Ahead of Boreas Pond and Macintyre Tracts hearings, Access Adirondacks aim to fill muchneeded void in discourse

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

NORTH HUDSON — A new coalition has entered the land classification fray.

As the Adirondack Park Agency sketches out dates for public hearings on the Boreas

Ponds and Macintyre Tracts on the southern end of the High Peaks, a group has been formed to lobby for expanded access.

Access Adirondacks, whose formation was announced last week, aims to give a voice to those who founders say have the most riding on the upcoming classification process: local community and business.

The loosely-organized group includes local government officials, landowners, recreational and sportsmen’s organizations, conservation groups, chambers of commerce, citizens and just regular folks.

North Hudson Supervisor Ron Moore said the organization aims to serve as a counterpoint to environmental groups calling for more restricted uses of the 20,758-acre tract, which was purchased by the state earlier this year and awaits classification.

“The goal is to promote access and recreation to all people while maintaining the environment,” Moore said. “It’s basically in the initial stages, we’re just getting started.”

The idea arose from a recent Five Towns meeting — North Hudson, Newcomb, Minerva, Indian Lake and Long Lake — at which the aforementioned stakeholders were present.

Groups like the Adirondack Local Government Review Board have also pledged their support.

“It just proves a lot of people have a lot of interest in this to create access for more people,” said Minerva Supervisor Steve McNally, who noted this was the first time such a broad coalition has assembled under a single banner.

Phone dialing to soon require three more digits

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

ALBANY — Soon, dialing a phone call in the region — and even to a next-door neighbor — will be giving callers’ fingers a little more exercise.

Beginning as soon as next summer, phone calls in the 17-county 518 region will require dialing 10 digits rather than just seven, according to a decision reached Sept. 15 by the state Public Service Commission.

The change is the consequence of the addition of a new area code — yet to be determined — to accompany new phone numbers assigned in the 518 region.

The addition of a new area code is due to the exhaustion of available numbers in the 518 area code region, primarily due to the proliferation of cell phones and tablets, according to

communication industry officials.

Because the commission decided to use an “overlay” area code rather than split the current 518 area into two regions, phone customers with a 518 area code will not have to change their existing phone numbers.

Hearings conducted this summer across the region elicited opinions that were 60-40 in favor of the overlay approach rather than splitting the 518 region geographically and assigning a new area code to phone customers in one of the two new districts, the agency reported.

Commission spokesman James Denn said in a prepared statement that his agency determined that the overlay was the best option because it was easier technologically — and less expensive and disruptive for phone customers, particularly businesses that would have to change signs, branding and advertising materials if the geographic option was implemented.

Donations sought for upcoming Barn Party in Thurman Annual hootenanny to benefit local residents facing hardship

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

THURMAN — Citizens of the rural town of Thurman are renowned for helping others in need — and a local couple has been observing that tradition for 10 years by raising money for families facing hardships or serious illness.

Jamiee and Roy Ross’s annual Benefit Barn Party is to be held, rain or shine, from noon to 11 p.m. Saturday Oct. 8.

Proceeds from the event go to Double H Ranch, which provides camping, skiing and other experiences, programs and support for children with life-threatening illnesses.

People from all over the region are invited — just bring a dish to pass and be ready to enjoy some mountain music, bid on donated goods and services to be auctioned, and enjoy the prevailing spirit. This lively party has annually attracted between 150 to 300 people.

The auction starts at 2 p.m., featuring goods and services donated by area businesses and individuals. Roy Ross, proprietor of Ross Auctions LLC, will be fielding the bids.

Ross noted that people can pay with MasterCard or Visa as well as cash.

Held on the barn’s second story, the party features square, round and rock dancing — and plenty of socializing. Providing music beginning at 7 p.m. will be Mike Leddick & Friends, featuring Jimmy Davis. Deejay Paul Siletti will be presenting music during the day. A basket raffle is to be held at 7 p.m.

Those attending may want to bring a fold-

ing chair, a jacket and comfortable shoes, Ross said, noting that the barn is equipped with heat, rest rooms, a kitchen, a stage and ramp access to the second floor.

The Ross’s first Barn Party was held in honor of Jamiee’s mother Betty Thayer — who died of cancer in the mid-2000s. She had left behind money which was used to build the sturdy barn. In the ensuing years, Roy and Jamiee have held barn parties for various families dealing with cancer or other serious hardships, raising between $3,000 and $10,000 at each event. Last year’s party raised about $7,000 for Double H Ranch.

Jamiee and Roy said they are still seeking donations of services and goods for the auction. People are encouraged to drop off tools, household goods, furniture and other items with solid value after at the Ross’s property at the address below.

For more information, call Roy or Jamiee Ross at 623-2899. Roy’s cell phone number is 480-1233. Those not able to attend the party are welcome to send donation checks payable to Double H Ranch, c/o Roy and Jamiee Ross, 748 Glen-Athol Road, Warrensburg, NY 12885 To reach the Ross’s home and barn, head north of Warrensburg on state Rte. 9, turn left onto Rte. 28, go to The Glen and turn left onto Glen-Athol Road and travel three miles into Thurman on the “high road” to the Ross property, located on the left side of the road.

Roy said he was looking forward to accommodating a crowd of people — from near and far.

“This event brings everybody together for a really good time, including many people who haven’t seen each other for years,” he said.

Adirondack Community Outreach Center expands Backpack Program Bags to aid students at Minerva Central

By Mike Corey

news@suncommunitynews.com

JOHNSBURG — After a successful full first year serving disadvantaged children at Johnsburg Central School, the Adirondack Community Outreach Center (ACOC) has expanded their Backpack Program to include Minerva Central School (MCS).

The MCS program is set to begin in October.

The Backpack Program is designed to provide nutritious food to students who qualify for free and reduced price lunches at both Johnsburg Central and MCS. The program serves 37 children at JCS and will be serving up to 30 additional children at MCS. Students who are part of the program pick up “backpacks” on Friday afternoons at school. The bags are filled with breakfast items, entrees, snacks and juices that can be utilized over the weekend.

Operating in agreement with the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York, the program is under the Food Bank’s oversight and is subject to its rules and inspection by its staff.

The cost of the program is $199 per child for a full year of school, approximately $5.50 per week.

“Money can be donated to support the program either through the Outreach Center, directly to the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York with the designation ‘Johnsburg (or Minerva) Backpack Program’ through the Minerva Service Organization, which is funding the bags for Minerva kids this year,” said ACOC Director Andrea Hogan.

The backpacks are actually cleverly disguised tee-shirts that have been adapted for re-use. Participating schools and the Outreach Center sign a memorandum of understanding with the Regional Food Bank to administer the program according to the Food Bank’s guidelines.

The schools identify which children are to receive the backpacks, and confidentiality is a key aspect of the overall program.

The ACOC is expanding it’s Backpack Program in 2016-17, which provides students with need food supplies for the weekend and extended breaks.

I

think in this election cycle, more so than ever before in my lifetime, the nation is forced to either sit out this presidential election or invest some time to make a choice they can live with.

Both candidates have significant “undesirable” qualities, according to the polls, and sadly, those negatives out weigh the positives making either a risky choice depending on your interests.

Add to that a highly fragmented national media, an extremely polarized social media and internet environment. What we are left with is undecided or uncommitted voters who are torn with respect to how they will cast their vote come November 8th.

In the past, polished political candidates representing both parties, could leave voters disappointed their candidate didn’t win, but with a feeling they could live with or at least accept the alternative to their choice.

Not so this year where it’s anything but normal and the stakes are as high or higher than ever before, depending on your views.

As much as anything this year, I think the Presidential Election of 2016 will come down to the National Media versus the American Public.

With next week’s first 90 minute Presidential Debate set to air on Monday September 26, 2016, from Hofstra University, it seems clear the American public will be tuned into what is being described as the single largest viewing audience for any live televised/streaming event history.

The voting public no longer trust the media. They have serious doubts about the political system and the mudslinging ads that lead up to election day. They will be compelled to sit, watch, listen and choose for themselves which candidate they will trust with their vote or make the choice to let others set the nation’s course for them by sitting this one out.

That’s a heck of a way to elect a president but it’s what we’ve done to ourselves by placing so much trust in partisanship political beliefs.

The first debate will be divided into six time segments of approximately 15 minutes each on major topics to be selected by the moderator. The moderator will open each segment with a question, after which each candidate will have two minutes to respond. Candidates will then have an opportunity to respond to each other. The moderator will use the balance of the time in the segment for a deeper discussion of the topic.

This storm has been building for a long time, and like a hurricane, the weather models are no better at predicting the outcome than the political pundits have been at predicting this election.

It’s now time to see both candidates on display and you will decide to stay the course or break the mold. The candidates must validate themselves and convince you to be trusted with your vote.

Blundering toward a cluster bomb ban

C

By Frank Pagano

luster bombs are notorious for scattering unexpended ordinance over a wide area. An egregious example is the residue of a quarterbillion of them dropped during our secret war in Laos. Duds from our futile attempt to interdict North Vietnam’s supply lines still kill about 20 children annually. Laotians call them “bombies”, and despite the warning posters in grade schools, children occasionally pick them up and some detonate. Most countries ban cluster bomb use or sale because of this latent, indiscriminate danger. The US isn’t yet on board but that may be changing.

A gridlocked Congress can’t be expected to intelligently deliberate the Convention on Cluster Munitions - they can’t even pass a budget on time or conduct hearings on a Supreme Court nominee. In Washington, it’s lobbyists, not politicians, who get results. They convinced the government to buy thousands of CBU-105s manufactured by Textron in Massachusetts, at $355,000 (each). This is the new and safer cluster bomb. Each bombie (rebranded as a “puck”) can independently track and maneuver to targets - which, one hopes, out-values the pucks. Textron was the only remaining US cluster bomb manufacturer, with pharmaceutical-strength pricing power. In addition to our military, their big customers included South Korea, India and even pariah-states such as Saudi Arabia.

The US launched a cruise missile with a low-tech cluster warhead into Yemen in 2009. It obliterated an Al Qaeda base - and killed about forty civilians as “collateral damage”. But worse than collateral is the deliberate illegal targeting of civilians with these weapons by other countries. We used to give away cluster bombs to the Israelis (99% of our foreign aid to Israel is categorized as military aid). But we’ve repeatedly scolded and sanctioned Israel (as Reagan did in 1982) for their tendency to commit war crimes with them. The Israelis, fed up with this treatment from their own client, developed indigenous cluster bombs, eventually competing with us on the international weapons market.

Incredibly, the Saudis, rolling in petrodollars, also receive US foreign aid.

But it’s only a million dollars, an infinitesimal fraction of Israel’s aid. So, the Saudis had to pay Textron a half-billion dollars for their cluster bombs - plus at least a $10 million gift to the Clinton Foundation. Did that influence our Secretary of State to fast-track her approval? Oh, no, we’re supposed to believe the same kingdom that permits beheadings for apostasy benevolently funds the Clinton’s humanitarianism. The Royal Saudi Air Force amassed a huge stockpile of dumb and smart US cluster bombs. These were deployed on their made-in-St Louis F-15s and dropped on Yemeni civilians – who just happen to be members of a rival Islamic denomination. Cluster bombs might also have been used on four targeted hospitals.

During his recent trip to Laos, Obama didn’t apologize for dropping more bombs on their country than we did on Imperial Japan. Instead the Nobel Peace Prize winner ruefully stated that the world is smaller and now we can’t get away with conducting secret wars anymore. But he graciously pledged more millions to clean up a tiny fraction of our lethal mess in Laos. Earlier this year, perhaps inspired by The Gipper, he scolded the Saudis for misusing our weapons, banning them from future cluster bomb purchases. This was necessary because Congress, under the influence of $4 million in campaign contributions from Textron, wouldn’t pass a one-line amendment to the Defense Authorization Bill prohibiting future cluster bomb transfers to Saudi Arabia.

Sadly, but predictably, Elise Stefanik voted against that amendment.

A

August 30 was a miraculous day in the struggle to ban cluster bombs. Citing the “current political environment”, Textron suddenly announced that they were shutting down their lucrative solesource CBU-105 production line. We’ve thus stumbled a step closer to joining the civilized world in banning the manufacture and use of cluster bombs – well, unless the political environment changes again, a distinct possibility with the leading, recklessly hawkish, presidential candidates.

In an article suitable for The Onion, a Barclay’s analyst, Carter Copeland, tried “to see the bright side” in the abandonment of a product responsible for killing or injuring 30,000 children.

Those collaterally-damaged kids were coldly zeroed out in the financial analysis. Here’s Mr. Copeland’s bright side: By closing the controversial CBU-105 production line, Textron may be a more lucrative foreign takeover target. Only Wall Streeters think its desirable for a Tier 1 US military contractor to be foreign-owned.

There’s more to this story but we’ve already overdosed on immorality. This is what happens when we outsource our civic responsibilities to plutocrats.

These people, our politicians’ owners, know there’s vast rewards and little risk in their anti-social behavior. As long as the voters are reliably distracted by trivia, such as scary clowns and athletes sitting out the national anthem, the plutocracy can get away with just about anything.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

TaxpayersÊ areÊ pickingÊ upÊ theÊ tabÊ onÊ hikingÊ trails To the Editor: When the Essex County Board of Supervisors was considering expanding the coverage of the “bed tax,” I wrote the supervisors stating that if such an expansion were to be implemented, all costs for that program should be paid for out of that tax’s revenue.

Those costs would include all legal costs for prosecuting those who cheat, the full cost of new employees required to process and track the taxes and the properties, process servers, and so on.

I have the same recommendation for the hiker tax.

All costs in the collection of the taxes must come from the income of the program. Otherwise, when costs exceed expenses, it is just another hidden cost to the taxpayers, concealed a little bit in this department and little bit in that department, and so on.

For example, the State requires an annual fee of $100 paid per snowmobile to use state trails. I doubt that the trail work ongoing and that proposed in recent years around the Town of North Hudson, the so called inn-to-inn trails, are totally paid for from that fund, not withstanding that the law requires $95 of that fee be used for trails; maintenance and development.

All taxpayers are picking up the tab, again, a little bit here, a little bit there.

Ê Welcome,Ê Mr.Ê Gondal To the Editor: In 1976, just looking for a spot to pitch a tent by a stream 100 miles north of my boyhood home, we discovered Elizabethtown.

It was only after closing on a small parcel and going to buy gas that we noticed the inscription on a concrete pole in the corner of the Sunoco lot: “KKK.” After feeling uneasy exploring properties in country settings in Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia because of examples of overt racism, we had accidentally settled with our biracial son in Dixie North!

But in the 40 years since, we have gone from ‘what have we gotten ourselves into’ to an everyday thankfulness: wow, how lucky we were to have stumbled into this wonderful place, where generous, open-hearted residents greatly outnumber the bigots, much like most places in the country.

It’s a kind of fitting, too, that the site of that long-ago fear-inspiring sign on the concrete pole is now a store/filling station operated by an entrepreneur from Pakistan by way of Paris!

In a welcome irony, the store’s opening coincides with the dedication of another piece of stone — granite, this time — to the memory of a town stalwart of the same family name as that of the longtime operator of the Sunoco station.

Welcome, Mr. Gondal and family. We’re sure that you’ll find just what we’ve found — an unusual community whose scenic beauty is surpassed only by the goodness of its people.

SchroonÊ LakeÊ LibraryÊ progressÊ Ê Ê Ê Ê updates To the Editor: The Schroon Lake Public Library Board of Trustees wishes to announce that progress is being made as we plan for the expansion the library.

To its credit, the Town of Schroon Town Council has approved bonding $1.1 million over 30 years for the expansion of the Town Court and the Library. This would result in a tax of $9/year for a home with assessed valuation of $100,000.

Built in 1979 with federal funding secured by the library, the current municipal building houses the court, the library, the supervisor’s office, as well as the offices of the secretary to the supervisor, the town clerk, the town assessor and the codes enforcement officer. In addition, a meeting room is available to the public on a first come basis.

Now, 37 years later, two areas greatly need to be expanded. The Town Court does not have a separate entrance. There is no effective room for lawyer-client consultations. People have to stand around in the hallway while they await their appearance before the judge.

Library patrons and town employees must thread their way through the people who are waiting.

The library is essentially “bulging at the seams.”

Libraries of today are so much more than our grandparents’ library, which in today’s view would be little more than a bookmobile in a fixed position.

Today, physical books are still a large part of a library. Many of our patrons prefer to read a “real book” rather than a digital one. However, added to those physical books are digital media such as music CDs, audio CDs, and DVDs. There are computers on hand that permit patrons to search the internet; digitally search and apply for jobs and search and borrow from the CEFLS library system’s physical books as well as eBooks and media.

Children’s programs include summer reading contests; make and take; story time and many more. Programs for adults include a book discussion group; a writers’ group; drawing and painting sessions and much more.

In the Clinton, Essex, Franklin Library System, the Schroon Lake Public Library has the 4th highest (of 30 libraries) book and media circulation, after the Plattsburgh, Saranac Lake and Malone libraries (all much larger cities.)

But we are only 18th of the 30 for square footage of floor space. The average amount of circulation per square foot for the system is 3.9 per 1 sq. ft.

COMMENTARY However, Schroon Lake’s library’s circulation is 15.7 per 1 sq. ft. Clearly our library is experiencing very heavy usage.

The new addition will provide the court and the library with an additional 2,500 square feet of space each. The court can thus be brought up to today’s safety standards, and the library will have the room it needs for all the usage it covers.

Currently the Library Board of Trustees is applying for the first year of a potential three-year construction grant from New York State Library Development office. With the local 25 percent contribution, this could amount to $100,000. In addition, our state senator Betty Little secured a grant for the court and library of another $100,000. Also, the Schroon Lake Friends of the Library has for several years raised tens of thousands of dollars for the furnishing of the interior of the expanded space.

But construction costs have increased significantly, so we do invite anyone to provide additional support. Contributions can be made to The Schroon Lake Public Library. Eventually there will be naming rights for significant spaces and equipment.

Finally, I encourage all residents to attend the Town Council Board meeting on Monday evening, Sept. 26 at 6 p.m. to support our court and library, and our hardworking Town Board as we all move forward on this municipal expansion project.

To the Editor: [In response to “Trump supporters should brush up on their Russian,” by Gary Philip Guido in the Sept. 17 edition of the Sun.] I have no reason to believe Mr. Gary Philip Guido. Bottom line, his desires for America are much different than mine.

I believe we both want a better America for our future generations, the problem is as I see it we have totally different ideas on how to accomplish the desired results and with who.

Facts are stubborn things, so let’s see if we can figure out who is working for America with the Russians! We know Hillary, while Secretary of State, sold 25 percent of the USA uranium deposits to Russia, and the Clinton’s got personally rewarded with huge donations to their family controlled foundation.

Yes, that is a fact!

We know that Trump has been cordial with the Russian leader and hopes to work with Russia once he is inaugurated on international issues and yes that’s a fact!

I see the rants and stupidity coming from the Clinton camp, along with personal insults directed at over 50 million Americans, myself included, with Hillary’s statement that “you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables.”

I won’t bore you with terms and name calling she followed that up with in an effort to avoid any children from seeing who the Democrats are supporting.

Mr. Guido, as I see it, Trump has approached this election and its issues with common sense, yes I agree he is out of touch with political correctness as developed by the radical left wing of the Democratic Party. But that is true to his character and makes him an even more attractive choice for the working people of America, and yes he is our best shot at MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. So wake up and join me in supporting Trump for President!

ore than 700,000 Americans are released from prison each year. We expect them to re-enter society and be law-abiding, but we make it extremely difficult for anyone who has served time to ever become gainfully employed, even though they have paid their debt to society. A barrier that needs to be removed is that box on standard job applications that asks, “Have you ever been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor?”

If you check “yes,” you will likely never hear from the potential employer again. It won’t matter how qualified or motivated you are. And with extremely limited legitimate earning options, the formerly incarcerated often re-offend and are re-incarcerated within a few years.

This destructive cycle not only devastates individuals, families and communities, it’s a recurring, evergrowing expense for taxpayers.

The cost of keeping and guarding inmates now averages $31,286 per inmate per year. Each inmate represents tax money that could otherwise be spent on programs to grow the economy, and each inmate is one less employee whose consumer spending would spur growth for all kinds of companies. The U.S. incarcerates more individuals than any other nation, and 70 million Americans have some sort of criminal record — almost one in three Americans of working age. This revolving door system is unsustainable. One simple step can be a solution.

More than 100 cities, 20 states and the federal government have passed laws that “ban the box.” “Ban the Box” simply defers the question about a candidate’s criminal history until such time that a conditional job offer is made. And for certain jobs, such as those working with children, employers may still ask about relevant criminal history.

“Ban the Box” ensures that potential hires are evaluated based on experience, skills and future potential, not past mistakes for which they’ve already paid and that don’t relate to their current efforts to make a fresh start.

This change is small but the potential value is enormous, especially to candidates in chronically disadvantaged communities. To break the cycle of poverty caused by lack of job opportunities, individuals need and deserve a chance to start fresh. And we need farsighted companies to implement inclusive hiring models.

I recently joined 18 other business leaders at the White House to launch the Fair Chance Business Pledge. This pledge calls on all businesses to improve our communities by creating a path to a second chance for people with a criminal record. Companies signing the pledge included big names like American Airlines, Coca-Cola, Facebook, Georgia Pacific, Google, Koch Industries, and Xerox. So this isn’t something the business community is that scared of.

A job is obviously essential for supporting oneself and one’s family, but it also provides confidence, dignity and self-worth, which has an encouraging ripple effect throughout any community. Let’s ban the box nationwide so hardworking individuals, ready to work, have a real chance to be a contributing member of society.

ThurmanÊ boardÊ Ô tookÊ awayÊ rightÊ toÊ voteÕ Ê fromÊ public To the Editor: [In response to “Thurman resident should ‘walk a mile in someone else’s shoes,’” by Marilyn Hoy-Youngblood, in the Sept. 17 edition of the Sun.] I go to Town Board meetings to observe the board members working for the residents of the town. This would include some kind of discussion by the board members on a particular issue (in Thurman this just does not happen) then possibly some input from the residents. I feel the residents should be given an opportunity to be heard, and this should all happen before it is voted on.

Very often, the town supervisor and three board members go to a vote without a discussion during a public meeting. So this inquiring mind would like to know, when and where did discussion occur?

In the 10 board meetings that I have attended, one time, I listened to the board discuss an issue. I had some things to add, I raised my hand and was ignored. I should have been given the courtesy to be heard.

I was told later by another resident “that public input is not allowed here.”

I said, “How stupid.”

Isn’t it better to work together for a better outcome?

In Thurman, the town supervisor and three of the board members have taken it upon themselves to ignore the majority and take our right to vote on some important issues away from us voters. These board members are clearly working for their own interest and not the majority.

All I am asking the residents of Thurman is to remember, come election time, what these four board members have taken from us. Let’s send that very clear message: “Your actions will not be tolerated.”

EYE ON THE ARTS

Art is relative F. Scott Fitzgerald, who was born this week in 1896, once said that writers weren’t people. He said that if they’re any good, they’re a whole lot of people trying so hard to be one person.

I think this applies to everyone, in a way; we all contain multitudes, we are all multi-faceted with fairly nuanced ideas, opinions and feelings.

This means that each one of us will experience things differently — each of us carry a lifetime of experiences behind us, each event altering our perspective and opinion, however minutely.

Each person, with their varied lifetimes, will react to art differently. That’s one of the great things about art and entertainment; some is made to woo its audience, others to disgust, to shock its viewers, but it’s all relative — regardless of its creator’s intention.

The North Country has plenty of opportunities to get involved with art and entertainment this week. Here are a few suggestions: Lake George’s C.R. Wood Park will see a two day local music festival on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1.

Performances scheduled for Friday are Capital Zen, Mister F and more. Saturday performances include Formula5, Joe Mansman and more. The festival will also feature food vendors and a kid zone. Tickets are $10 for a two day pass. Gates open at 4 p.m. on Friday and 12 p.m. on Saturday.

Organizers say that “The Glass Menagerie” is “one of the most famous plays of the modern theater.” Tickets are $15 in advance, $20 at the door. Showtimes are 10 a.m. and 7 p.m.

The LPCA will also host folksingers Alex Smith and Dan Berggren on Oct. 1.

Gore Mtn. adds 35 acres to ski trails

FrontStreet Mountain Development donates land to town of Johnsburg NORTH CREEK — FrontStreet Mountain Development announced Sept. 14 that it has transferred ownership and use of the remaining historic ski trails located in the North Creek Ski Bowl to the Town of Johnsburg.

In total, some 35 acres of additional prime ski terrain is now being made available to expand the Gore Mountain offering at the Ski Bowl. In all, FrontStreet has transferred over 73 acres of skiable terrain for Gore Mountain.

FrontStreet previously transferred ownership of some 38 acres to the town, property that included the historic Hudson Trail, the land under the Hudson Triple Chair lift and the

popular Hudson Glade. These trails have been opened for skiing as part of Gore Mountain.

“We’re excited to be adding the additional acreage for Gore Mountain’s trail system, which span four peaks of terrain,” said Mike Pratt, Gore Mountain’s General Manager. “The land transfer is another positive step forward in the redevelopment of this historic area.”

Pratt says that the Ski Bowl venues now include downhill skiing with beginner and expert terrain, cross country skiing, terrain-park, half-pipe, ski-boarder cross course, and a Nordic race course.

The connection with Gore Mountain and the restoration of the historic Ski Bowl for public skiing will collectively bring significant revenue, economic growth and employment opportunity to the surrounding communities, according to Town of Johnsburg supervisor Ron Vanselow. “Between the additional parking, the additional trails, and changes in the driving patterns, the Ski Bowl Interconnect will better serve its purpose to connect the Gore Mountain skiing complex with downtown North Creek, with all the anticipated economic benefits.”

‘Outdoors Alive’ has expanded program for 2016

By Thom Randall

thom@suncommunitynews.com

‘ CHESTERTOWN — Outdoor sports enthusiasts from across the region will be gathering in northern Warren County this weekend to participate in Outdoors Alive, a three-day event that had a successful debut last year under another name.

Set for Friday Sept. 23 through Sunday Sept. 25, the event — called Sportsmen’s Weekend in 2015 — focuses on hunting, fishing and wildlife education.

This year’s edition features expanded hands-on experiences as well as representing a wider variety of interests, event organizer Fred Holman said Tuesday. All events are offered free of charge, he said.

“Last year, we primarily had lectures on outdoor topics, but this year, we’ll be offering more interactive experiences,” he said, noting that Outdoors Alive is intended to introduce people to the area’s natural resources and recreational opportunities.

The events of Outdoors Alive are to be held Friday in the Horicon Town Hall, Saturday at the Dynamite Hill Recreation Area just southeast of Chestertown, and Sunday in several locations in Chester. A vendor expo featuring outdoor sports equipment and survival gear is to be situated at the Dynamite Hill pavilion.

Variety in topics is a key aspect of Outdoor Alive 2016, and the weekend’s first event — the lecture “Bigfoot in New York and New England” — reflects this.

Bigfoot researcher, historian and author Paul Bartholomew will be giving a presentation, including details on Sasquatch encounters which have occurred in the North Country repeatedly since 1603 — including a compelling instance about 40 years ago in Whitehall reported by a reputable local businessman. Bartholomew and his Bigfoot research have been featured on a variety of television networks as well as in various publications. His presentation is to be held at 7 p.m. Friday Sept. 23 in the Horicon Town Hall.

Saturday, the formal registration is to begin at 8 a.m. in the Chamber of Commerce headquarters at Dynamite Hill on state Rte. 8. The morning programs include fly-tying instruction by local sportswoman Barbara Blum at 9 a.m., followed by two talks: Introduction to Waterfowling by noted area hunter Mark Pepin, then Wildlife in the Adirondacks at 10:30 a.m. by wildlife biologist John Bowe.

After a lunch break and visits to Outdoors Alive’s expo, the programs resume at 1 p.m. with fly casting tips

by Lou Bruno of the Adirondack Fly Fishing School, followed by a talk on the ethics of trapping by retired forest ranger and trapper Bill Houck.

A talk on metal detecting

by Bob LaVoy, star of the television series Treasure Hunting America, is to occur

at 2:30 p.m., followed by a demonstration and instruction on turkey calling by sportsman Steve Cuzzacrea at 3:15 p.m.. Other Saturday afternoon activities include archery target practice for both children and adults, a rock climbing wall for youth, as well as chainsaw carving demonstrations of wooden bear sculptures by Frank Cavoli.

Sunday’s events include fly casting excursions to various angling sites led by Chris Stiles, for which participants meet at 9 a.m. in front of the Chamber of Commerce headquarters on Rte. 8. This trip lasts until noon.

The weekend events conclude with a program on wolves in the Adirondacks by licensed wildlife rehabilitators Steve and Wendy Hall.

This presentation, set for 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday at the Carol Theatre in Chester-

town, features a meetup with Kiska, the Hall duo’s fullblooded wolf sidekick.

For further details on Outdoors Alive 2016, call Fred Holman at (518) 803-4034.

Practice for annual Bolton Christmas Cantata to begin Oct. 5 BOLTON — Organizers announced “And Glory Shoe Around” by Lloyd Larsen and Douglas E. Wagner will be the Christmas cantata for 2016.

Rehearsals for the ecumenical choir will begin on Wednesday, Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. in the Chestertown United Methodist Church and will continue on each Wednesday until performance time.

Performances are scheduled for Dec. 3 at 7 p.m. in St. Sacrement Episcopal Church in Bolton Landing and on Sunday, Dec. 4 at 3 p.m. in the Community United Methodist Church in Chestertown.

Warrensburg

Tips for shoppers:

<< Continued from | p. 1

goods, vehicle parts, antiques, old toys, vintage jewelry,household items, tools — virtually anything imaginable.

Busy answering phone inquiries about the sale, Chamber Administrator Suzanne Tyler said Sept. 19 that vendors are reserving spaces as fast as ever, and that new spaces have been delineated downtown in the Tops Supermarket parking lot to accommodate all the new retailers signing up.

“Several of our vendors who work festivals all year say our Garage Sale event is always their best sale,” she said. “We not only have great feedback from vendors about their sales figures, but how they enjoy the friendly people.”

Featuring at least 1,000 yard sales and vendors total, the event is huge — nearly beyond description for those visiting it for the first time.

The event begins this year at 9 a.m. Saturday. Oct. 1, and runs until 6 p.m., with the same hours for Sunday, Oct. 2 - and these are just the official hours.

The event is not just about bargains.

There’s also a street-fair atmosphere, with plenty of carnival food - from “blooming” onions, to sausage-and-pepper sandwiches and fried bread. This year, a Mexican food truck joins the array of veteran vendors.

On both Saturday and Sunday, the Warrensburg Fire Co. members will be offering breakfast and lunch sandwiches and other fare in the parking lot of Alexander Funeral Home at 3909 Main St. All proceeds benefit the volunteer organization.

Here’s the scoop on how to avoid frustration of crushing traffic and to maximize bargain-hunting fun: • Arrive early on Friday — check into town before 7:15 a.m. A lot of vendors are setting up Friday. Many savvy shoppers who know this are getting “first pick” of a wide range of wares.

• If you do arrive Saturday, take I-87 Northway to exits 22, 24 or 25. Avoid Exit 23, the primary road into Warrensburg, since it becomes very congested.

By 8:30 or 9 a.m. Saturday, traffic can be backed up for miles. From Exit 22, turn left onto Rte. 9 and drive just a few miles north to Warrensburg. From Exit 24, go south on Schroon River Road and park at the Warren County Fairgrounds or the Warrensburg High School where shuttle buses will take you in and out of town. Or, from Exit 25, head south out of Chestertown on Rte. 9 into Warrensburg. If you do arrive via Exit 23, take a right turn to go via East Schroon River Rd. and follow signs to complimentary parking at the county fairgrounds and take a free bus ride downtown.

• A limited amount of in-town parking for automobiles only is available both Saturday and Sunday adjacent to the Warrensburg firehouse on lower Elm St. for a modest charge.

Further advice for event enjoyment:

• Bring a backpack to haul your bargains home.

• Wear comfortable shoes because you will walk a lot.

• Have plenty of cash on hand.

Tyler and sale co-chair Linda Marcella said that traffic control, parking and shuttle bus service has been tweaked for 2016 to help move both visitors and residents through town as efficiently as possible.

Shuttle busses circle through the hamlet at 20-minute intervals, letting shoppers on and off not only at designated stops, but where passengers request, Marcella said.

“We’ll be working really hard to make sure traffic can move as well as possible,” she said.

New this year is recreational vehicle parking at the Warren County Fairgrounds on Schroon River Road, which has for decades only been reserved for sedans and trucks.

This parking lot, north of town, is where

people can board shuttle buses that take them into town and back at 20-minute intervals on Friday Sept. 30 from noon to 6 p.m, on Saturday Oct. 1 from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., and on Sunday, Oct. 2 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m..

PLANNING THE HUGE SALE — Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce’s new administrator Suzanne Tyler (left) and Chamber vice president Linda Marcella review a contract detail in a notebook stuffed with paperwork pertaining to hundreds of vendors signed up for the 2016 edition of the World’s Largest Garage Sale, set for Saturday Oct. 1 and Sunday Oct. 2.

The nationally renowned sale is expected to attract 50,000 to 60,000 people to Warrensburg over the weekend.

Advisory to residents and visitors:

• From Friday Sept. 30 through Sunday Oct. 2, there is no parking on Main St. from the bandstand to Stewart Farrar Avenue, nor on Elm St., nor Emerson, Second, Hackensack, Horicon and Adirondack avenues. Parking is also prohibited on the north side of Stewart Farrar, and the north side of Library Ave. from Elm to James streets. These parking bans are in force so emergency vehicles can move through town.

Those who disobey these mandates are likely to have their vehicles towed.

• Motorists are urged not to block driveways, fire hydrants, nor park on private property without permission.

• No trailers of any kind nor recreational vehicles may be parked along roadways. Many vehicles get towed each year.

New law taking bite out of ‘zombie homes’

By Pete DeMola

pete@suncommunitynews.com

PORT HENRY — Every community has them: Abandoned homes moldering into the landscape, their overgrown, trash-strewn lawns and crumbling edifices tarnishing otherwise pleasant and well-maintained neighborhoods.

But relief is in sight. A new state law to combat “zombie homes” — vacant and abandoned properties left unmaintained during foreclosure proceedings — is cleaning up Essex County, local officials are reporting.

The legislation, signed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo in June, contains a half-dozen provisions designed to expedite the rehabilitation and repair of homes once they become vacated.

Once abandoned, the properties fall into decay, diminishing property values and posing public health risks.

Local officials have long said these properties pose one of the most vexing problems for municipalities, namely because their hands are largely tied, both legally and economically, when it comes to what they can do to clean up their communities.

Little could be done to force owners to keep the properties maintained, and local law contained scant provisions to do so.

Costs to maintain or demolish properties are often prohibitive for cash-strapped municipalities, especially if they’re found to contain asbestos or other toxic materials.

“Towns can end up spending tens of thousands of dollars trying to get a property cleaned up,” said Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava.

The new legislation places the maintenance obligation on a mortgagee as soon as they are aware of the vacancy — not after a judgment of foreclosure and sale is obtained, a process which takes a minimum of 21 months.

Failure to do so will result in court action, violations and fines of $500 per day.

Code enforcement officers will now be on the frontlines of determining timelines, said Essex County Treasurer Mike Diskin.

“I think it’s going to be a big benefit once towns catch on,” Diskin said.

Scozzafava said his community is already taking advantage of the new law.

“What we do is we contact the bank or whoever holds the mortgage,” Scozzafava said. “We tell them the condition of the property, we send them a follow-up letter from the code enforcement officer and they’ve been good about coming in now.”

Westport, too, has seen some movement, including the partial demolition of a bank-owned property across from the Essex County Fairgrounds on Sisco Street.

The structure sat abandoned for years before the roof deteriorated and eventually collapsed.

Until its mid-August teardown, a door remained wide open.

“It’s something that has needed to happen for a long time,” said Supervisor Michael “Ike” Tyler, who hoped several other problem properties in the community would also be quickly remediated as a result of the law.

Other provisions in the legislation require the foreclosing party to move to auction within 90 days of obtaining a foreclosure judgment, and requires them to take action to ensure that the property is reoccupied within 180 days of taking the title.

Blighted properties are a statewide issue — not just one plaguing the North Country.

Teddy << Continued from | p. 1

Oh my goodness, sir. I spent a good deal of my youth here and you may know the first thing I ever published — I wrote some 30 books; I did not write well. I simply took well to writing — and very often had cited my first book was a naval history of the War of 1812.

But the first thing that I published was a pamphlet on the birds of Franklin County, New York co-authored by my fellow Harvard student, Henry Minot, a result of two summers spent paddling around the lakes in the Adirondacks. And of course, I was climbing Mount Marcy at the time when I was notified that President McKinley was on demise and near death in Buffalo. There’s the famous ride from Tahawus down to North Creek in September of 1901. And that is, in part, what the community of Newcomb commemorates during this weekend.

How would you describe the Adirondack Park to one of your constituents who has never been here before?

It is a place where there’s a public and private partnership, but most definitely the protection of the state of New York for the wonderful resources of this region. The timber, the preservation of habitat for wildlife.

Clean water, a place where the idea of passing

on our natural resources in better condition to future generations — not in worse — has taken hold with the people. And of course, these are a hardy people in the Adirondacks where hard work and where service to their fellow citizens is such an important part of the fabric of life here.

Can you recommend a nice spot to visit?

Recommending one spot in the Adirondacks is like naming my favorite national park or my favorite child. I would simply say that the Adirondacks is near and dear to me and I’m delighted to be back in Newcomb, and I’m looking forward to being in Tahawus.

It was in the headwaters of the Mississippi River that my little bunnies played at the time when the nation was in crisis and peril when I ascended to the presidency, and I’m glad that I had the chance to hike Mount Marcy and see the view and gain that inspiration as a vision before I came down and took on the duties of the presidency. There’s a political answer for you, sir!

OneÊ HundredÊ YearsÊ Ago:Ê SeptemberÊ 1916 Greatest Achievement – Heartbreaking Disaster Twenty-five men were plunged to their death and many more were injured when the central span of the big $17,000,000 Quebec bridge over the St. Lawrence River collapsed as it was being swung into place marking what would have been the final work on one of the greatest engineering feats in the entire world.

Thousands of people who had gathered to watch the completion of the bridge, including cabinet, parliament members and engineers, viewed the accident with horror. Engineers from practically all parts of the world who were president by special invitation also were witnesses of the catastrophe.

Unknown mail robber The United States Secret Service men are at work trying to solve the mystery of the disappearance of a mail pouch containing $30,000 from a Hudson Valley Trolley car, Tuesday evening, Aug. 22, 1916, between Lake George and French Mountain, having succeeded in securing the names of some of the passengers who were on the car when the pouch was sto-

ugust 2016 continued a very warm summer with many hot, humid days that followed the trend that began in July. Even with above normal rainfall the ground remained dry due to the warm temperatures evaporating most of the rain that fell.

The average high temperature was 81.7 degrees and the average low was 58.8 degrees, giving us an average of 70.2 degrees, 3.2 degrees above normal and the 2nd warmest on record.

The warmest August was in 2001 when the average temperature was 70.9 degrees and the coolest was in 1982 when the average was 62.9 degrees. The average August temperature has only been above 70 degrees three times in the last 35 years and all of them have been since 2001.

Also it is one of the few times on record when the average August temperature was warmer than July(70.0 degrees.) The highest temperature (91 degrees) was recorded on the 11th and the lowest (47 degrees) was recorded on the 23rd. There was one 90 degree

Precipitation for the month was 4.24 inches, 0.51 inches greater than normal. This brings our seasonal total to 24.08 inches, 3.65 inches below normal. Even though this amount is only 13% of normal, the ground has been very dry due to the lack of snow last Winter.

Precipitation fell on 10 days, with the greatest amount, 1.96 inches, falling on the 1st and 2nd. There were 8.5 degree days bringing our seasonal total (heating season begins July 1) to 23.

Good fishing While fishing at Harris Bay, Lake George, one day recently, James C. Smith and Charles R. Tripp, of Albany, caught a silver eel which measured forty-four inches from head to tail and weighed six and one quarter pounds.

This is probably the largest eel ever caught in the history of Harris Bay. The proud fishermen had the skin of the eel stuffed and will take it to Albany to exhibit to their friends. A short time previous, the two men caught a black bass which weighed five and a half pounds.

Sweet and sour notes L.J. Dean, of Stony Creek, has bought a new 1917 model Ford automobile. The new Saxon Runabout automobile owned by Daniel Robinson, of Warrensburgh, was destroyed by fire at the Cadillac Garage in Glens Falls when there was an explosion as the tank was being filled with gasoline and the motor was not shut down. There was no insurance to cover the loss.

Married ten years and the parents of nineteen boys is the record set by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Scott, of Corning, Ark. There are three sets of triplets, four sets of twins and two single births.

Howard M. Stanley and Mrs. Libbie Baker, both of North Creek, were married, the night of Sept. 6, 1916, by the Rev. T.J. Hunter.

In Bakers Mills, Burt Dalaba., who has been seriously ill with typhoid fever for about two months, is improving and is able to get out and work some. Eri Hitchcock has been suffering from a paralytic stroke.

Mrs. Jack McMannus is mourning the loss of her pet dog, “Peg,” a pure bred Boston bull.

Peg came to her death by getting hit by an auto in the early summer causing an abscess to form on her neck.

That, in part, is why the Five Towns banded together in 2013 prior to Essex Chain of Lakes discussions, said the lawmaker.

“We realized we were the most affected by the recent purchase,” Moore said.

Moore was quick to hail Gov. Andrew Cuomo for guiding those negotiations between towns and land use planners, largely viewed as a compromise, and for promoting tourism in the region.

“Things have changed for the better,” Moore said. “It’s improving for us.”

Alongside the classification process, the state Department of Conservation will develop a Unit Management Plan.

While a Wilderness classification means Access Adirondacks’ proposals may be entirely torpedoed — a measure that would largely carve the group out of the subsequent debate — Moore says he hopes the organization will stick around after the current debate ends.

“We thought maybe this could have a future in future land acquisitions,” Moore said. “Hopefully this group will stay together and be this group that is all inclusive.”

Kemper said sportsmen haven’t always been vocal about access issues.

“The sporting community is strongly in favor [of access], and will take a stronger role than in the past,” he said.

A website is in the works, and the group plans to meet at least once before the first public hearing, which is scheduled for Nov. 9 at the APA headquarters in Ray Brook.

Last week, Moore asked the Essex County Board of Supervisors to circulate the MOU to their town boards and potential signatories in their communities.

While county lawmakers unanimously approved the resolution, at least one supervisor indicated he needed to study the issue more closely before signing off at the local level.

“My board really needs to get more information about this,” said Westport Supervisor Michael “Ike” Tyler.

Access Adirondacks is joined by another new informal group seeking to influence the debate.

Adirondack Wilderness Advocates, conceived this past May, has assembled their own proposal for the new tracts, which includes an expanded Wilderness area.

Besides her parents, she is predeceased by her beloved husband of 30 years, Richard Tanguay; her siblings, Judy

Spooner, James Magee, and Francis Hugh Magee, and two grandchildren, Christopher and Dawn Wilson.

She is survived by her six children: Ray Bohmer and his wife, Susan of Olmstedville, Robin Conner and her husband, Warren of Glen Rose, TX, Cynthia Wayne and her husband, Kenneth of Hughsonville, Patrick Bohmer of Athens, ME, John Bohmer and his wife, Carole of Granite City, IL, and Heidi Plumley and her companion, Mark Labrecque of Minerva; her brother, John Magee and his wife, Lynne of Uncasville, CT as well as 15 grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren, several nieces, nephews, cousins and her beloved poodle, Marcel.

At Patricia’s request, there are no calling hours or funeral services scheduled.
